I plugged my charger in it popped and wont do anything.

What could this be? Is there an internal fuze that may have blown?

If your power supply "popped" then it can be anything inside of it ;) but usually there is no fuse in them

I would blame capacitor that during time losses its dielectric.

Mind also to chech if there is no visible damage to the circuit - especially where the power cables are soldered.

Be aware, because opening laptop chargers could be tricky ;) chech what's YouTube showing about your model
